My sister and I had a lovely overnight stay. Were given an unexpected upgrade to a beautiful room with a few of the sea and mountains and we enjoyed the spa facilities. After a beautiful breakfast we set off feeling relaxed and well rested. Can’t wait for a return visit

Lovely break away with my husband. The hotel was lovely. Stayed in the junior suite. Couldn’t have asked for more. The spa was amazing. Although the hotel was very busy it didn’t seem too packed. We will certainly be back.
